Discovering oneself can be a life-long journey, punctuated by profound moments of realization.
For Madison Sasser, author and unguarded voice of the blogging world, that moment came at 23 with an autism diagnosis.
Her story is one of navigating the murky waters of self-identity and professional life, a tale she recounts with raw honesty in our latest episode.
Madison's narrative is a beacon for anyone who's felt adrift in a sea of societal expectations, providing an intimate look into the complexities of late autism diagnosis and the pursuit of personal truth amidst a career in writing.

She dissects her journey through the often unforgiving terrain of the writing industry, where she's juggled the roles of blogger, podcaster, and aspiring author.
This episode peels back the layers of Madison's experiences: from the siren call of law school for its false promise of stability, to the strategy of diversifying income streams to sustain her writing passion.
It's a candid exploration of the hurdles she's faced, underscored by a clarion call for acceptance and understanding within the autistic community and beyond.
